The Important Thing Now

"Zhang Ren… I know we recently became friends, but know that I'm here for you, alright? Always…"

Even after the call, he could still remember what Shi Lian had said to him. With his heart unexplainably beating in his chest, he couldn't help but furrow his brows as his hand slowly go up to touch his chest.

'Why? Why is my heart racing?'

What Zhang Ren is thinking, however, is why Shi Lian had suddenly said that.

With the thought of his grandfather suddenly coming to mind and with his connections that he could get at any time of the day, he got his phone and started to dial his number despite it being so late in the evening, 30 minutes before midnight.

However, Mr. Chen picked up the phone immediately, greeting Zhang Ren with a cheery voice.

"Zhang Ren, my boy!"

His voice was full of love, so much doting every time they talk.

"You're not sleeping yet? Haiya… you little boy. You better go to sleep!"
